SAS(p UA HILLS 





^j HE continuous chain of towns 
and villages between New York 
and Bridgeport, a stretch of 
about sixty miles, comprises one of 
the most extensive and attractive 
populous regions in the United 
States. A beautiful rolling country 
skirting Long Island Sound, in- 
dented at intervals with bays and 
inlets, sloping back to the Uplands 
of Westchester and the Hills of 
Connecticut, this entire section is 
thickly studded with the splendid 
estates and palatial homes of many 
of New York's most influential 
families. 

Unsurpassed facilities for boat- 
ing and other water sports, many 
of the country's best golf courses, 
excellent roads, with frequent extensive growths of heavy timber 
affording drives of unusual charm, many points of historic 
interest, and all the numerous improvements and advantages 
peculiar to communities of refinement and affluence, all contribute 
to make this entire region one of special appeal to those con- 
templating residence out of the city, either for the summer or 
throughout the year. This entire country being traversed by 
the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, the com- 
muting facilities are of the best; free from dust and smoke — no 
grade crossings, and the intercommunication by trolley between 
points is an added convenience. 



Lying near the Saugatuek River, 
just beyond South Norwalk in the 
most attractive section of the district 
above described and favored by many 
well known New Yorkers, is the 
SASQUA HILLS DEVELOPMENT. 
From an undulating plateau, at 
an elevation of about ioo feet above 
sea level, the land gently slopes to the 
meadows bordering the Sound. Fac- 
ing the waters of the Saugatuek River 
and the Sound to the East, the view 
extends to the West, overlooking 
Norwalk Harbor — affording to every 
plot a pleasing and more or less exten- 
sive water view, while the property is sufficiently distant from 
the shore to avoid the unpleasant glare usual to seaside resorts. 
Electricity, the best of city water, supplied from the Norwalk 
City mains; proper drainage; proximity to the city of Norwalk, 
assuring delivery of supplies, etc., are among the conveniences; 
gas will be introduced when demand is sufficient. 

The character of the property, together with the foregoing 
facilities, constitute the rare combination of real country life 
with all city conveniences and advantages. 










The property lying between two important and nearby 
express stations, is approached from every direction by fine 
roads. Compo Beach, one of the finest bathing beaches on the 
Sound, is just across the Saugatuck Harbor and within short 
driving distance. 

The Westport, Brooklawn, Greenwich, Weeburn, Apawamis, 
Saiwanoy, and Wykagael Golf Clubs are within easy reach, 
and the Norwalk Country Club is convenient. Churches of all 
denominations and excellent schools nearby. Time by rail from 
Grand Central Terminal, one hour and ten minutes. Rigid 
restrictions protect purchasers from the possibility of annoyance 
or any undesirable conditions. 

In brief, SASQUA HILLS offers unique attractions to 
those seeking relief from the turmoil of the city and desiring 
to live in a sweet and wholesome country with ideal surround- 
ings, free from the drawbacks and disadvantages pertaining to 
many localities — a home in the country at its best. 

The property is offered to acceptable purchasers in plots 
of two to ten acres for suitable improvement. -
